Device Communications API Demonstration Application
A demonstration application is distributed with the Device Communications Toolkit API. It is an example of a very simple driver enabler. The demonstration is an application where device memory is simulated. No actual communication with a device is involved, hence no protocol is needed. In this example the device name is TOOLKIT_DEVICE, and there are 7 different types of memory (domains), as follows:
Name | Size |
REG_PLC | 300 words |
INP_PLC | 128 bytes |
OUT_PLC | 128 bytes |
INOVR_PLC | 128 bytes |
OUTOVR_PLC | 128 bytes |
SP_PLC | 32 bytes |
UL_PLC | 300 words |
Where 1 word = 2 bytes
The demo may be built and installed as a CIMPLICITY software application as discussed below.
Note: The hardware and software requirements for building the demo program are the same as those for building any driver enabler.
